I've just swapped over, and I can't say I like it

I seem to have lost the little house icon for my Google homepage, and getting to bookmarks now takes TWO clicks instead of one.

Also, when you DO click on the Firefox icon at top left, come down too quickly and you go into a bit about tabs instead of your bookmarks, and you can't go back without closing it and re-clicking

Is it just me, or has anyone else found the same?

I'm using 4 and i quite like it. The house icon is on the right, bookmarks only take one click still (providing you have the icon on the toolbar)
are you using a theme?

the only thing i didn't like was the loss of the status bar at the bottom but that was rectified with the add-on status-4-evar

Loss of statusbar? Mines there without an addon, you get to it from the view menu right?

Just installed it around 30 mins ago, it all looks a bit Chrome`ish to me.

eh it's nothing like chrome except for the tabs bein above the addy bar

While it has been 3 months since i used chrome on my old work laptop, as soon as FF updated to v4 and ran, the first thing i thought was "its all chrome`ish"

So mehh

Status bar at the bottom of the screen?
It's not an option on mine. They removed it in 4.

OK, I've "found" the house, thanks .

How do I get the bookmarks to be one click? At the mo, I click on the "Firefox" orange tab at the top, them move the cursor to "Bookmarks" which then come up. Or down, rather.

But moving the cursor too quick downwards gets me into tabbed browsing, which I can't get out of without clicking the Firefox icon again, then again for bookmarks

Right click on the tool bar and click customize, find the bookmarks button and drag it too the toolbar.

yea, not on mine it isn't Unless its because I have adblock installed which has an icon in the statusbar n it reinstates it? dunno.

I would say it's on a par now, maybe just a tiny bit slicker.

I even looked at it for a while trying to work out why they had added a google search bar, so it must look similar.

I tell you what though, i have a GTX275 here and it is one of them ones that likes to "squeal" when it is affected by various FPS.

And the bugger is making a noise right now while on this reply screen

Ctrl B is quick shortcut for bookmarks, thats what i use as i hate having tool bars and buttons everywhere, i ran all the Pre-release and RC candidate and did alot of testing, they've used the same backend Tech as chrome using the graphics card to quicken processes. i'm a big FF fan, chrome just isnt stable and does stupid things is testing and debug modes (i work for a software development company)

Doesn't it just. Thank goodness someone else has seen the same things I have. People keep telling me how great it is and I keep telling them it is buggy, but they don't believe me until a page doesn't load properly and then they ask me why? LOL!

I see the complete opposite its using less RAM and the RAM leaks 3.6 suffered from has gone as well. I usually have 3-4 tabs open at once.
